Tippmann Sports the premier manufacturer of high-performance paintball markers and accessories, has announced the formation of a promotional partnership with EMR Paintball Park.

Located in New Milford, PA, EMR Paintball is one of the most popular venues for Scenario and Big Game play in the eastern United States. EMR’s 24 fields include the newly-sponsored “Tippmann Town” featuring two streets lined with buildings and lighted for night play. Situated on five acres of prime real estate adjacent to the Castle, Tippmann Town will see dramatic growth with three additional two-story buildings and a set of new, 12 x 64-foot townhouses. “We’re really thrilled about teaming up with Tippmann”, said Michael “BLUE” Hanse, owner and president of EMR. “We’ve been using Tippmann markers for over 15 years, so we feel like we’re part of the family. This sponsorship will help us improve and expand the park, making it even more exciting for the players.”

Tippmann’s hallmark of quality-made products is an integral facet of the partnership, as all of EMR’s rental markers and accessories carry only the Tippmann brand name. This benefits both enthusiasts and first-time players alike, as product performance and reliability are key to maximizing the EMR experience. “From exclusive equipment rental to naming rights on all the buildings in Tippmann Town, this is definitely a win-win for both Tippmann Sports and EMR.”, commented Cheryll Sullivan, Director of Marketing for Tippmann.

Tippmann Sports, LLC is affiliated with Summit Partners, a leading private equity capital firm. Headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Tippmann sells its products throughout the United States, with a growing presence in Europe, Australia and Canada.

E.M.R. Paintball Park is owned and operated by Michael “BLUE” Hanse, his wife Susie “WOB” Hanse, and their son Christopher “DEUCE” Hanse. For more information on EMR’s fine facility and for photos of Tippmann Town, go to www.EMRPAINTBALL.com.
